Details of the UCSB Spar buoy deployed during EDDIES 2004 Survey 2.
    Due to the cancellation of the EDDIES Tracer 1 cruise, the deployment during the Survey 1 leg was recovered
prior to the end of Survey 1.  During Survey 2 (oc404-4), the UCSB spar bouy was again deployed after determination
of the eddy center position.  The second  mooring was recovered near the end of Survey 2.

Calibration of instruments:
    SBE-39s and SBE-37 were calibrated by SeaBird.

    ECO-FLNTU Chl a and Optical Backscatter sensors were compared to the Oceanus CTD fluorometer during 
a comparison cast (oc404-4 053) during EDDIES 2004 Survey 2.  Using the facory Chl a slope values, yielded Chl a 
values that were about twice that of the CTD fluorometer.  The comparison of the extracted Chl a and Phae a samples 
to the CTD fluorometer also showed the CTD fluorometer to be reading too low.  Therefore, the ECO-FLNTU readings
of all 3 profiles were matched with corrected CTD fluorometer values rather than factory calibrated CTD fluorometer
values for oc404-4 053. There was significant differences in the Chl offset count for all 3 ECO-FLNTU sensors.  The 
ECO-FL sensor failed to log during the comparison cast, so no adjustment to the factory calibration factors could be
determined for this sensor.
    The Optical Backscatter channel of the ECO-FLNTU was too insensitive for optimal use in these clean waters.  
Therefore the data is not reported in our report.
